A dominant role of transcriptional regulation during the evolution of C4 photosynthesis in Flaveria species by Ming-Ju Amy Lyu, Huilong Du, Hongyan Yao, Zhiguo Zhang, Genyun Chen, Yuhui Huang, Xiaoxiang Ni, Faming Chen, Yong-Yao Zhao, Qiming Tang, Fenfen Miao, Yanjie Wang, Yuhui Zhao, Hongwei Lu, Lu Fang, Qiang Gao, Yiying Qi, Qing Zhang, Jisen Zhang, Tao Yang, Xuean Cui, Chengzhi Liang, Tiegang Lu, Xin-Guang Zhu

“…Herein, we construct chromosome-scale genome assemblies and perform multi-omics analysis for five Flaveria species, which represent evolutionary stages from C3 to C4 photosynthesis. Chromosome-scale genome sequence analyses reveal a gradual increase in genome size during the evolution of C4 photosynthesis attributed to the expansion of transposable elements. …”
